The method for remotely checking the starting state of the server comprises the following steps:
when the CPU executes one of the BIOS subroutines, the CPU compares whether the current power-on self test program corresponding to the BIOS subroutine conforms to one of a plurality of preset power-on self test programs.

[ detailed description ] embodiments
In this embodiment, a secondary Controller, such as a mailbox Controller (mailbox Controller), which operates independently inside a Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) is used to receive a cpu executing a bios program, so as to convert a current power-on self-test code (POST code) into a readable string, such as a status string, and when the readable string receives the status string corresponding to the current power-on self-test code, the status string is overwritten and stored in a corresponding register.
The current power-on self-test code is transmitted to the main controller of the baseboard management controller for being stored in the form of a system event log, wherein only a few important current power-on self-test codes which are consistent with the preset power-on self-test code are additionally converted into a status string and transmitted to the mailbox controller for the mailbox controller to overwrite and store in the corresponding register, and not every current power-on self-test code is transmitted to the mailbox controller. Because the System event log stored by the main controller of the baseboard management controller is accumulated for a long time, and not only the System event log of the relevant information generated by the CPU executing the BIOS program, but also the information generated by the CPU executing the OS (operating System) or the baseboard management controller executing the firmware is recorded in the form of the System event log, the data amount of the System event log can be huge, the present case is mainly to provide the remote host to check the present situation of the BIOS executed by the CPU of the server, so the seen data is only the last state, and the previous data does not need to be saved, and the present power-on self-check code is transmitted to the mailbox controller of the baseboard management controller when the CPU executes the BIOS program, the specific implementation of the server of the present invention is described in detail below, with the current power-on self-test code being converted into a corresponding readable string and then transmitted to the mailbox controller of the baseboard management controller without interrupting the operation of the main controller of the baseboard management controller.
Referring to fig. 1, the server of the present invention includes a system on chip 21, a memory unit 22 (e.g., a non-volatile memory such as a flash memory, a hard disk (not shown), a network disk, a flash drive external to the server, or a hard disk external to the server, in this embodiment, the memory unit 22 is illustrated as a flash memory), and a baseboard management controller 23.
The system-on-chip 21 includes a Central Processing Unit (CPU) 211, a volatile Memory such as a Dual In-line Memory Module (DIMM) 212 electrically connected to the CPU 211, and a Platform Path Controller (PCH) 213 electrically connected to the CPU 211.
The dual-line memory module 212 is used for the CPU 211 to temporarily store the executed program.
The platform path controller 213 replaces some of the original sets of functions of the south bridge and north bridge and connects to other data bus I/O, such as: audio devices, Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA) Bus, Universal Serial Bus (USB), and Local Area Network (LAN).
The Flash memory (Flash) 22 is electrically connected to the platform path controller 213 and stores a bios program including a plurality of bios subroutines, the cpu 211 executes the bios subroutines of the bios program during a Power-on process after the system is powered on to perform a plurality of corresponding Power-on self-test (POST) programs, it should be further explained that each current Power-on self-test program corresponds to a current Power-on self-test stage, each current Power-on self-test stage corresponds to a current Power-on self-test Code (POST Code), the Flash memory 214 stores a comparison table in advance, the comparison table includes preset Power-on self-test codes corresponding to the preset Power-on self-test programs, and the preset Power-on self-test programs correspond to a plurality of current self-test programs corresponding to the bios subroutines respectively That is, when the central processing unit 211 executes one of the marked current power-on self-test programs, the relevant data corresponding to the executed current power-on self-test program, such as a default power-on self-test program code, is converted into a readable character string and transmitted to the baseboard management controller 23 via the platform path controller 213 for storage, and it should be further explained that the relevant data can be, for example: the current power-on self-test code number corresponding to the BIOS subroutine of the Pre-Extensible Firmware Interface phase (PEI phase), or the current power-on self-test code number corresponding to the BIOS subroutine of the Driver Execution Environment phase (DXE phase), or the last phase (End of POST) of the current power-on self-test program, or the related data of the phase before the BIOS subroutine is executed and the operation system (Boot to OS) is entered.
Furthermore, after the CPU 211 executes the BIOS subroutines, the CPU 211 then executes an Operating System (OS) program stored in a storage unit corresponding to the platform path controller (e.g., a non-volatile memory such as a hard disk (not shown), a network disk, a flash drive connected to the server, or a hard disk connected to the server, as described below by way of example) via the platform path controller 213, and the Operating System is further subdivided into a plurality of Operating System subroutines respectively corresponding to a plurality of current Operating System monitoring programs, each corresponding to a current Operating System monitoring program code, the hard disk pre-storing a comparison table written with preset Operating System monitoring program codes corresponding to a plurality of preset Operating System monitoring programs, the default OS monitor codes correspond to a plurality of current OS monitor codes of the current OS monitor, i.e. the plurality of current OS monitor codes are marked as monitor points to be used as the default OS monitor codes respectively, and the current OS monitor codes corresponding to the marked current OS monitor codes are used as the corresponding default OS monitor codes respectively, when the CPU 211 executes one of the current OS monitor codes marked as monitor points, the related data of the corresponding executed current OS monitor, e.g. default OS monitor code, is converted into a readable character string and transmitted to the BMC 23 through the BMC 213 for storage, to provide the remote host 3 with a mechanism for reading by the bmc 23, and the mechanism for storing readable strings in the bmc 23 will be described in detail below.
The bmc 23 is electrically connected to the platform path controller, and includes a main controller (main controller) 231 and a secondary controller 232 electrically connected to the main controller 231 and operating independently from the main controller 231, in this embodiment, the secondary controller 232 is a mailbox controller (mailbox controller) in the bmc 23, when the cpu 211 executes the current power-on self-test procedure marked as a monitoring point, the readable character string is correspondingly transferred out, the secondary controller 232 is configured to receive the readable character string and store the readable character string in a temporary memory for reading and writing data inside the basic management controller 23 instead of receiving, converting and storing through the main controller 231 controlling the overall operation of the bmc 23, so as to prevent the interruption of the operation of the main controller 231 from affecting the overall operation of the bmc 23, the following specifically describes the flow of the method for remotely checking the server status according to the embodiment.
Referring to fig. 2, the specific process of executing the method for remotely checking the power-on state of the server according to the embodiment includes an initialization step 411, a power-on step 412, a comparison step 413, a conversion step 414, a transmission step 415, a reading step 416, an operating system starting step 417, a comparison step 418, a conversion step 419, a transmission step 420, and a reading step 421.
The initialization step 411 is that after the cpu 211 is powered on and the system is to be booted up due to receiving a boot signal, the cpu first triggers the secondary controller 232 of the bmc 23 to perform initialization.
The boot-up step 412 is for the CPU 211 to execute the related boot-up procedures according to the BIOS program stored in the flash memory 22, i.e., execute the BIOS subroutines one by one.
The comparing step 413 is to compare the executed basic input/output system subroutines with the cpu 211 one by one to see if the current power-on self-test program respectively corresponds to one of the preset power-on self-test programs (monitoring points), further detailing the comparing method: the central processing unit 211 determines whether the current power-on self-test code corresponding to the current power-on self-test program corresponding to the currently executed bios subroutine matches the default power-on self-test program codes corresponding to the default power-on self-test programs, and if the determination result is no, continues to execute the next bios subroutine.
The converting step 414 is to convert the data related to the executed bios subroutine corresponding to the current power on self test procedure, such as the code of the current power on self test procedure, into readable character string by the cpu 211 if the comparison result of the comparing step 413 is yes, and transmit the readable character string to the secondary controller 232 of the bmc 23.
The transmitting step 415 is that the cpu 211 transmits the exported readable string to the secondary controller 232 of the bmc 23, so that the secondary controller 232 can store the received readable string in its readable and writable register.
The read step 416 is for the remote host 3 to read the status string associated with the current power-on self-test code, i.e., read the readable string, from the bsc 23, which is read/written by the bsc 232.
The open os step 417 is for the cpu 211 to then switch to execute the os program stored on the hard disk, i.e., execute a plurality of os subroutines included in the os program, so as to perform a plurality of current os monitor programs respectively corresponding to the os subroutines.
The comparing step 418 is to compare one by one whether the current os monitor corresponding to the executed os subroutine is one of a plurality of predetermined os monitors (monitor points) when the cpu 211 executes the os subroutines, and if the comparison result is negative, continue to execute the next os subroutine.
The conversion step 419 is to generate data corresponding to the related operation status of the operating system subroutine executed by the cpu 211 and convert the data into a readable character string if the comparison result of the comparison step 418 is yes.
The transmitting step 420 is that the cpu 211 then transmits the exported readable string to the secondary controller 232 via the platform path controller 213, and the secondary controller 232 stores the received readable string in its corresponding register.
The reading step 421 is that the remote host 3 reads the readable character string stored in the register corresponding to the secondary controller 232 through the bmc 23, and more specifically, the remote host 3 logs in the primary controller 231 of the bmc 23 through the network and reads the register corresponding to the secondary controller 232 through the primary controller 231.
To sum up, in the above embodiments, when the cpu executes the bios subroutines and compares the predetermined bios monitor corresponding to the lookup table pre-written in the flash memory, the cpu converts the data generated during the bios subroutines into a readable string and transmits the readable string to the secondary controller, so that the secondary controller stores the readable string in the register corresponding to the readable string and the remote host reads the readable string from the bmc, and similarly, when the cpu executes the os subroutines and compares the predetermined os monitor corresponding to the reference table pre-written in the hard disk or the marked current os monitor, the cpu converts the data generated during the os subroutines into a readable string, for example, the current os monitor code, and also transmitted to the secondary controller for storage in the corresponding register, and for the remote host 3 to read via the baseboard management controller, so that the administrator of the remote host 3 can directly check the current operating status of the server, that is, the operating status indicated by the readable character string stored in the register corresponding to the secondary controller, thereby achieving the purpose of the present invention.
The above description is only for the specific embodiments of the present invention, but the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto, and any person skilled in the art can easily conceive of the changes or substitutions within the technical scope of the present invention, and all the changes or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention shall be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
